Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application relates to the technical field of steel smelting, in particular to a production process of 9SiCr cold-rolled wide-width plate coil. BACKGROUND

[0002] 9SiCr is a kind of low-alloy tool steel, also belongs to low-carbon high-hardness steel. It is composed of iron, carbon, silicon and chromium and other elements, and is obtained through special heat treatment process. This kind of steel has the characteristics of high hardness, good toughness, strong wear resistance, high impact resistance and good heat fatigue resistance. 9SiCr steel also has excellent cutting performance and wear resistance, which can greatly improve the service life of tools and dies. Due to its high hardenability and hardenability, as well as high tempering stability, 9SiCr is suitable for grading quenching or isothermal quenching.

[0003] 9SiCr steel has a long application history, and is mainly used to manufacture machine tool accessories and cold working dies, such as printing dies, gear hobbing dies, wire drawing plates and cold punching dies. In recent years, 9SiCr is gradually applied to heavy-duty dies, and some are used to replace Cr12 steel.

[0004] There are two difficulties in the cold rolling production process of this material:

[0005] One is that pickling is difficult, and the iron oxide scale of the steel coil is relatively easy to remove when the hot-rolled coil is directly pickled in the pickling process of this steel grade, but due to the high strength and poor plate shape of the steel coil, uncoiling is prone to belt breaking and scratching, and pickling is very difficult. The pickling speed is 10m / min-30m / min, and the pickling efficiency is low. After annealing and spheroidizing, the pickling can reduce the strength of the steel coil, and the pickling difficulty is relatively low. But the surface iron oxide scale is reduced to iron scale by hydrogen in the cover furnace, and the pickling needs to be strictly controlled at low speed. And it is difficult to remove the reduced iron scale covered on the surface layer during pickling, and the residual oxides under the iron scale are easy to cause the oxide to be pressed into the subsequent cold rolling. Even in the environment of high-temperature annealing with inert gas protection, the oxygen elements in the iron oxide scale will also diffuse and react with the carbon in the matrix, causing the iron oxide scale to be reduced to iron scale which is difficult to pickle. And the oxygen elements migrating and diffusing will further oxidize the surface layer of the matrix, causing the surface layer of the matrix to be oxidized and the surface decarburization layer to be generated. The pickling methods currently used in the industry all have disadvantages, so the pickling process path of 9SiCr needs to be optimized.

[0006] The second is that the traditional production process of 9SiCr tool steel cold-rolled coil is produced by single stand + narrow strip (width ≤500mm), and there is no single stand + wide-width plate coil (width >900mm) form. When the narrow strip is added to the single stand mode, the reduction rate is generally less than 25%, and the reduction rate is increased. It is easy to break the belt, and there are problems of low cold rolling production efficiency, difficult control of steel coil plate difference and large edge drop.

More specifically, any of the following satisfy the condition "A or B": A is true (or present) and B is false (or not present); A is false (or not present) and B is true (or present); or both A and B are true (or present).

[0107] The production process of the 9SiCr wide plate coil in this application includes the following steps:

[0108] The 9SiCr hot-rolled plate coil is subjected to first annealing, pickling, spheroidizing annealing, rolling, and second annealing;

[0109] According to some embodiments of the application, the process parameters of the first annealing are as follows:

[0110] The coil is heated from room temperature (20-25°C) to 200°C at a free heating rate, then heated to 400°C at a heating rate of 60-80°C / h and held for 4h;

[0111] Then heated to 500-660°C at a rate of 60-80°C / h and held for 10-20h, and after the holding is completed, the air is replaced and cooled to 400°C, and then water is used to cool to 100°C and the furnace is discharged.

[0112] In this way, the problems of difficult pickling, poor pickling effect, etc. are solved.

[0113] 9SiCr tool steel is difficult to pickle: this steel grade has high carbon and silicon content, high material strength and brittleness, high hot rolling load, and very thick oxide on the surface of the coil. When pickling at a speed much lower than that of other high-carbon steels, it needs to be pickled two to three times to be clean. When the speed is faster or the number of times is less, the surface is not clean and there are residual pits.

[0114] There are two kinds of conventional material pickling process paths, one is to pickle after annealing the hot coil, and the other is to pickle the hot coil directly.

[0115] The former can reduce the strength of the coil, but the surface iron oxide scale is reduced to iron scale by hydrogen in the hood furnace, which is difficult to remove during pickling, and the residual oxide under the iron scale is easy to cause the oxide to press into the subsequent cold rolling; the latter is relatively easy to remove the iron oxide scale, but the coil has high strength, poor shape, and is easy to break and scratch during uncoiling, making it very difficult to pickling. The production preparation for pickling is too long, and the efficiency is low. Therefore, the appropriate process path for pickling of such steel grade raw coil is to use soft annealing (i.e. first annealing) at a lower temperature to inhibit the reduction of oxide.

[0116] According to some embodiments of the application, the process parameters of the pickling process are as follows:

[0117] After the low temperature annealing, the steel coil is reduced from 1400 MPa tensile strength to 900 MPa, and the steel coil is successfully passed through the strip. Under the condition of reducing the concentration of the regenerated acid and the water temperature, the normal pickling can be realized, the quality is ensured, and the pickling cost is saved.

[0118] High temperature annealing (parameters see Comparative Example 1) cross section Figure 1 The surface oxide is reduced to sponge iron by hydrogen, and is difficult to be removed during pickling (see Figure 1 ). The cross section result after the first annealing (Example 1) is shown in Figure 2 The surface oxide is not basically reduced, and is easy to be removed during pickling.

[0119] Hydrochloric acid pickling, the mass fraction of hydrochloric acid is 12% to 18%, the temperature of hydrochloric acid is 70℃ to 90℃, and the pickling speed is 30m / min to 160m / min;

[0120] After hydrochloric acid pickling, water rinsing, the rinsing temperature is 60℃ to 80℃;

[0121] The strip steel after rinsing is dried by hot air, and the temperature of hot air is 110℃ to 120℃.

[0122] According to some embodiments of the application, the process parameters of the spheroidizing annealing process are as follows:

[0123] The steel coil is heated from room temperature (20℃ to 25℃) to 200℃ freely, then heated to 400℃ at a heating rate of 60℃ / h and kept for 4h;

[0124] Then heated to 700℃ to 800℃ at a heating rate of 60℃ / h, and kept for 10h to 20h;

[0125] After the end of keeping, the furnace is cooled to about 600℃, then air is replaced to cool to 400℃, and then water is replaced to cool to 100℃ and the furnace is discharged.

[0126] According to some embodiments of the application, the process parameters of the rolling are as follows:

[0127] The process parameters are set according to the basic yield strength of 700 to 800 MPa during rolling, the rolling force and tension of the material during rolling are stable, and the shape control is good. The finished product thickness is uniformly distributed, the thickness difference fluctuation is small, the thickness precision is ±10μm, and the crown C40 is within 6μm.

[0128] The rolling is cold rolling;

[0129] The cold rolling is produced by a wide plate single stand cold rolling unit, the cold rolling rolling force is 800 TON-1000 TON, the tension is 150 KN-240 KN, the cold rolling work roll adopts a rough roll rolling, the cold rolling reduction is 30%-40%, the rolling speed is set to 200-300 m / min, the roll shifting mode is adopted for rolling, and the roll shifting value is 30-90 mm.

[0130] The high dimensional accuracy plate coil production is ensured by roll shifting.

[0131] According to some embodiments of the present application, the second annealing is a bell type furnace annealing.

[0132] According to some embodiments of the present application, the process parameters of the second annealing are as follows:

[0133] The process can guarantee that the material accurately meets the terminal performance requirements, improve the material spheroidization grade and hardness performance, and prevent excessive carbide precipitation, migration and growth, causing surface carbon depletion, and ensure that the material optimizes its machining performance.

[0134] The steel coil is heated from room temperature (20℃-25℃) to 200℃ freely, then heated to 400℃ at a heating rate of 40℃ / h-80℃ / h and kept for 4 hours;

[0135] Then heated to 700℃-800℃ at a heating rate of 40℃ / h-80℃ / h and kept for 10h-20h;

[0136] After the holding is finished, slowly cool to about 600℃, change the air to cool to 400℃, and change the water to cool to 100℃ and discharge.

[0137] The technical effect of the present application is to solve the industry problem of difficult pickling of 9SiCr, large reduction cold rolling production in the form of wide coil plate instead of narrow strip or wide coil plate strip winding after bell type annealing, high production efficiency and low cost. Moreover, in the production of wide plate single stand cold rolling unit, the equipment precision is high and has the roll shifting capability of work roll, which can efficiently and low cost produce high quality cold rolling wide plate coil. Compared with the traditional cold rolling special steel enterprises at home and abroad, the technology can be used to produce cold rolling 9SiCr and other high-end products, which can bring significant economic benefits.

[0139] This example is the production process of 9SiCr wide plate coil with a thickness of 1.8 mm, which consists of the following steps:

[0140] The 9SiCr hot rolled plate coil is subjected to first annealing, pickling, spheroidizing annealing, rolling and second annealing;

[0141] Hot-rolled steel coils of grade 9SiCr were selected as raw materials. The raw material specifications were 3.0mm×1250mm, and the chemical composition was C0.91%, Si1.4%, Mn0.5%, Cr1.1%, with the remainder being Fe and indispensable residual or impurity elements. After cold rolling, the finished product specifications were 1.8mm×1250mm.

[0142] The first annealing is a low-temperature stress-relief annealing with the following parameters:

[0143] The steel coil is heated freely from room temperature (25℃) to 200℃ in half an hour; then heated to 400℃ at a heating rate of 40℃ / h and held for 2 hours; then heated to 650℃ at a heating rate of 70℃ / h and held for 18 hours; after the holding period, it is cooled to 400℃ by air; then cooled to 100℃ by water before being taken out of the furnace and pickled.

[0144] Pickling was performed using hydrochloric acid with a mass concentration of 15% and an acid solution temperature of 82℃; followed by water rinsing at a rinsing temperature of 70℃; the strip steel was then dried with hot air at a temperature of 110℃; and the pickling rate was 120 m / min.

[0145] The pickled steel coils are then subjected to spheroidizing annealing. The parameters for spheroidizing annealing are as follows:

[0146] The temperature is raised from room temperature (25℃) to 200℃ in half an hour; then heated to 400℃ at a rate of 60℃ / h and held for 4 hours; then heated to 790℃ at a rate of 60℃ / h and held for 10 hours; after holding, it is slowly cooled to 600℃; then air-cooled to 400℃; then water-cooled to 100℃ before being rolled out.

[0147] The rolling process is cold rolling, and the process parameters are as follows:

[0149] The cold-rolled steel coils are then subjected to bell-type furnace annealing (i.e., second annealing), with the following process parameters:

[0150] The steel coil is heated freely from room temperature (25℃) to 200℃ in half an hour; then heated to 400℃ at a heating rate of 60℃ / h and held for 4 hours; then heated to 750℃ at a heating rate of 60℃ / h and held for 10 hours; after holding, it is slowly cooled to 600℃; then air-cooled to 400℃; and finally water-cooled to 100℃ before being taken out of the furnace.

[0156] The first annealing is a low-temperature stress relief annealing, with the following parameters:

[0157] The steel coil is heated to 200°C from room temperature (25°C) in half an hour; then heated to 400°C at a heating rate of 40°C / h and held for 2 h; then heated to 650°C at a rate of 70°C / h and held for 18 h; after the holding is completed, air cooling is performed to 400°C; water cooling is performed to 100°C and the coil is discharged from the furnace, and then pickling is performed.

[0159] The pickled steel coil is subjected to spheroidizing annealing, with the following parameters:

[0160] The coil is heated to 200°C from room temperature (25°C) in half an hour; then heated to 400°C at a heating rate of 60°C / h and held for 4 h; then heated to 760°C at a rate of 60°C / h and held for 10 h; after the holding is completed, slow cooling is performed to 600°C; air cooling is performed to 400°C; water cooling is performed to 100°C and the coil is discharged from the furnace, and then rolling is performed.

[0163] The cold-rolled steel coil is subjected to cover furnace annealing (i.e. the second annealing), and the process parameters are as follows:

[0164] The steel coil is heated from room temperature (25°C) to 200°C freely, then heated to 400°C at a heating rate of 60°C / h and kept for 4 h, then heated to 750°C at a heating rate of 60°C / h and kept for 10 h, then slowly cooled to 600°C, then air cooled to 400°C, then water cooled to 100°C and discharged.
